The Wolf Stinger currently boasts the highest offensive stats of all bows. Its strength lies in delivering a steady stream of strong DPS from range, making it a simple yet highly effective weapon for any Ranger.

Bushwacker (Best for Stealth)

Weapon Overview
Grounded 2 - BushwackerBushwacker Base Tier: Tier II
Handling Type: Ranged
Damage Type: Stabbing
Mods: Cheap Shot

The Bushwacker’s Cheap Shot mod makes it an excellent stealth weapon, granting a large damage boost against enemies at full health. Pair it with the Assassin Mutation and aim for enemy weak points to deal massive damage.

Outside of this bonus, the bow’s damage is only average against already hurt targets, making the Wolf Stinger more effective for high-HP foes like bosses and elite bugs.

The Bushwacker is located in a chest on a tree at the southern end of the Pine Hill region.
